Ou Treffer 2018 x6

Oor die heuwels van die land.

Net so bietjie reën.

En dalk 'n brokkie son.

Waai windjie waai.

Jou sente, jou drome.

Oor die rand van die glas.

Al meer gaan verstom.

Jou het ek lief bo alles.

VINTAGE: 2018

VARIETAL: 100% Cinsault

ORIGIN OF GRAPES: Stellenbosch

VINTAGE NOTES

Second oldest, low-yielding Cinsault bush-vines, planted in 1952 in Stellenbosch. Grapes are picked by hand in the early morning hours to ensure that the flavours stay intact and that the best bunches are selected for ripeness.

WINEMAKING

Whole-bunch fermentation took place in open-top fermenters with 2 punch-downs daily for 6 days. After basket press, the wine was aged in two older 500l French Oak barrels for 12 months.

TASTING NOTE

The nose and palate show raspberries, cherries and spice with the wine coming across as fresh, medium to light bodied with gentle grippy tannins.
